I ordered full sizes from Aubrey Nicole during their Mardi Gras free shipping sale last February, and I received my package yesterday. I'm happy just looking at the huge 3oz jar of foundation. My haul:

I still have full sizes of Blusche, but I couldn't resist the cute new packaging! So I went ahead and bought more full sizes of foundation (what will I do with four jars of Creme Brulee?), concealer, and primer.

I availed of Milan's holiday sale last year and I got full sizes! Two foundations, Kiana and Olivia, two jars of Oil At Bay, two jars of Perfect Presentation, and a short synthetic flat top brush.

The Kiana looks a bit light for me, so I might have to sell it or give it away. I didn't include it in the picture anymore. Olivia was a great match! The powder is very creamy and gives great, full coverage. I only needed a light dusting to do my entire face, so I'm sure this jar is going to last me a long time. I still have to test Oil At Bay and Perfect Presentation, but I've read good reviews so I went ahead and got full sizes. :)

Received my Taylor Made full sizes today! One jar of foundation in Katherine and two jars of blush in Buff. Katherine is a deep yellow shade, and Buff is a peach color with a very slight sheen.

My Ocean Mist package has arrived! I took advantage of their Thanksgiving Sale last November, where it was buy-one-take-one for foundations and concealers/veils/finishing powders. Two for the price of one, wow! One of the best sales ever! So now I have two jars of Dandelion foundation, two jars of Saffron yellow concealer, and one jar of Black Sea eyeshadow.

Although it's a little pale for my undereye circles, Saffron is excellent at toning down redness. The areas near my nose are a bit reddish, and Saffron does a good job of neutralizing the red and making it closer to my skin color.

I love how Ocean Mist's foundation is so light yet makes me look put-together, perfect for days when I don't feel like using creamy and heavy coverage foundations. It gives a clean, pretty finish that makes me look like I have naturally great skin. I've tried putting on three layers, and somehow it still doesn't clump or look cakey. Highly recommended if you prefer light to medium coverage.

Hauled in stuff from Luminare this week! Foundation in Creamy Olivine, mineral veil in Heaven Sent, refine powder in Caramel, and blush in Radiant Glow.

I also had a Micabella mini-haul. I was completely convinced by Mrs. Cora Garcia, so I bought foundation in Honey (a rich yellow shade), and eye primer as base for my eyeshadows.

I hope there will be an MMU Weekend again soon!

After being completely won over by the Ellana samples, I ordered full sizes. One Premium Blend foundation in Hazelnut Latte, one Glow-Enhancer foundation in Hazelnut Latte, one Oil-Absorbing finishing powder in Espresso Con Panna, one concealer in Awake, and one eyeshadow in Ethereal (matte black). I love the packaging - wide, clear jars and pretty labels. My haul:
